Palacio Consistorial
© Richie DiesterheftLocated in Columbus Park, the historical building dates back to 1502-1504. It was erected to be used as the residence of the Mayor, but in the 19th century it was completely refurbished in Neoclassical style. Some years later, in 1913, they added the 29 meters high tower that characterizes the current corner of the council, where you’ll find a clock.
If you go inside you’ll find a small courtyard and an information office.
